JOHN'S HOUSE, CLEBKENWEI,!, B.C. Tlie following Catalogues of Hindi, Panjabi, Sindhi, and Pushtu Books form the fourth volume of the series of Catalogues of Books in the vernaculars of Northern India in the British Museum, compiled by Mr. J. F. Blumhardt. The principles on which these Catalogues have been arranged are practically the same as those adopted in the previous volumes. The few points of divergence are fully explained in the Preface. ROBERT K. DOUGLAS, KKKPBB OF THE DEPARTMENT OP ORIENTAL PRINTED BOOKS AHU MS8. British MasBOM, .%)/. 1, 1893. ^ PEEFACE. The present volume contains catalogues of literature both Hindu and Muhamraadan, and a few remarks are necessary, therefore, to explain the system of nomenclature applied to each class of works. The Hindi language is so closely allied to the Sanskrit, and its literature, as represented in the present Catalogue, consists so largely of works written, translated, and commented on by Sanskrit authors, that it has been thought desirable to adopt the Sanskrit forms of the names of authors and of their works on the principles already applied in the Catalogues of the Bengali, and of the Marathi and Gujarati Books in the British Museum. On the other hand, the authors of Panjabi, Sindhi, and Pushtu works are mostly Muhammadans, and the literature is but little connected with the Sanskrit. Hindi names in these Catalogues have accordingly been transliterated more in conformity with the Persian forms in which the authors themselves spell them ; as, for instance, " " " Gobind Singh (,^ jju^) for " Govinda Simha (jftfr^ f^^). The Hindi Catalogue, as a separate work, embraces books written in the various dialects of that language, such as Marwari, Nepali, Braj-bhasha, &c. Specimens of all of these may be found under the heading " Bible " (col. 26, 270, et »eqq.). The Marwari dialect is specially devoted to Jain literature, a heading which occurs in the Subject-Index ; while Braj-bhasha is particularly identified with the earlier literature of the Krishna-cult. In cases where Sindhi or Pushtu works have titles expressed in Persian or Arabic forms, they have been presented in the same manner, and are transliterated in accordance with the rules, adopted in cataloguing books in those languages.* J. F. BLUMHARDT. London, May 1, 1893. * lo Paahta works, however, a final unsounded h ("• kbafi") in nouns that are feminine in that lan^age, though not so in Persian or Arabic, as t^ Uiim, " a story," is unexpressed, in order to distinguish it from the final sounded h (" t zahii ") which is characteristic of the masculine noun, and is expressed, as in tjh ill Mkak-tiilah, "a prince."

  • How Cubic Equations (And Not Quadratic) Led to Complex Numbers
    How Cubic Equations (and Not Quadratic) Led to Complex Numbers J. B. Thoo Yuba College 2013 AMATYC Conference, Anaheim, California This presentation was produced usingLATEX with C. Campani’s BeamerLATEX class and saved as a PDF file: <http://bitbucket.org/rivanvx/beamer>. See Norm Matloff’s web page <http://heather.cs.ucdavis.edu/~matloff/beamer.html> for a quick tutorial. Disclaimer: Our slides here won’t show off what Beamer can do. Sorry. :-) Are you sitting in the right room? This talk is about the solution of the general cubic equation, and how the solution of the general cubic equation led mathematicians to study complex numbers seriously. This, in turn, encouraged mathematicians to forge ahead in algebra to arrive at the modern theory of groups and rings. Hence, the solution of the general cubic equation marks a watershed in the history of algebra. We shall spend a fair amount of time on Cardano’s solution of the general cubic equation as it appears in his seminal work, Ars magna (The Great Art). Outline of the talk Motivation: square roots of negative numbers The quadratic formula: long known The cubic formula: what is it? Brief history of the solution of the cubic equation Examples from Cardano’s Ars magna Bombelli’s famous example Brief history of complex numbers The fundamental theorem of algebra References Girolamo Cardano, The Rules of Algebra (Ars Magna), translated by T.

Without which most modern scientific discoveries would have been impossible” Albert Einstein Sammanfattning Matematik i antika och medeltida Indien har påverkat utvecklingen av modern matematik signifi- kant. Vissa människor vet de matematiska prestationer som har sitt urspring i Indien och har haft djupgående inverkan på matematiska världen, medan andra gör det inte. Ekvationer var ett av de områden som indiska lärda var mycket intresserade av. Vad är de viktigaste indiska bidrag i mate- matik? Hur kunde de indiska matematikerna lösa matematiska problem samt ekvationer? Indiska matematiker uppfann geniala metoder för att hitta lösningar för ekvationer av första graden med en eller flera okända. De studerade också ekvationer av andra graden och hittade heltalslösningar för dem. Denna uppsats presenterar en litteraturstudie om indisk matematik. Den ger en kort översyn om ma- tematikens historia i Indien under många hundra år och handlar om de olika indiska metoderna för att lösa olika typer av ekvationer. Uppsatsen kommer att delas in i fyra avsnitt: 1) Kvadratisk och kubisk extraktion av Aryabhata 2) Kuttaka av Aryabhata för att lösa den linjära ekvationen på formen 푐 = 푎푥 + 푏푦 3) Bhavana-metoden av Brahmagupta för att lösa kvadratisk ekvation på formen 퐷푥2 + 1 = 푦2 4) Chakravala-metoden som är en annan metod av Bhaskara och Jayadeva för att lösa kvadratisk ekvation 퐷푥2 + 1 = 푦2.

    Volume 13, Number 1, 2020 - - DOI: 10.24193/adn.13.1.9 TEACHING RECURRENT SEQUENCES IN BRAZIL USING HISTORICAL FACTS AND GRAPHICAL ILLUSTRATIONS Francisco Regis Vieira ALVES, Paula Maria Machado Cruz CATARINO, Renata Passos Machado VIEIRA, Milena Carolina dos Santos MANGUEIRA Abstract: The present work presents a proposal for study and investigation, in the context of the teaching of Mathematics, through the history of linear and recurrent 2nd order sequences, indicated by: Fibonacci, Lucas, Pell, Jacobsthal, Leonardo, Oresme, Mersenne, Padovan, Perrin and Narayana. Undoubtedly, starting from the Fibonacci sequence, representing the most popular in the referred scenario of numerical sequences, it was possible to notice the emergence of other sequences. In some cases, being derived from Fibonacci, in others, changing the order of the sequence, we thus have the historical study, with the use of mathematical rigor. Besides, their respective recurrence formulas and characteristic equations are checked, observing their roots and the relationship with the number of gold, silver, bronze and others. The results indicated represent an example of international research cooperation involving researchers from Brazil and Portugal. Key words: Historical-mathematical investigation, Recurring Sequences, History of Mathematics. 1. Introduction Linear and recurring sequences have many applications in several areas, such as Science, Arts, Mathematical Computing and others, thus showing an increasing interest of scholars in this subject. The Fibonacci sequence is the best known and most commented on by authors of books on the History of Mathematics, being, therefore, an object of study for many years, until today, safeguarding a relevant character (Rosa, 2012). Originated from the problem of immortal rabbits, this sequence is shown in many works succinctly and trivially, not providing the reader with an understanding of how we can obtain other sequences, from the evolution of Fibonacci sequence.

  • Chapter Two Astrological Works in Sanskrit
    51 CHAPTER TWO ASTROLOGICAL WORKS IN SANSKRIT Astrology can be defined as the 'philosophy of discovery' which analyzing past impulses and future actions of both individuals and communities in the light of planetary configurations. Astrology explains life's reaction to planetary movements. In Sanskrit it is called hora sastra the science of time-'^rwRH ^5R5fai«fH5iref ^ ^Tm ^ ^ % ^i^J' 11 L.R. Chawdhary documented the use of astrology as "astrology is important to male or female as is the case of psychology, this branch of knowledge deals with the human soul deriving awareness of the mind from the careful examination of the facts of consciousness. Astrology complements everything in psychology because it explains the facts of planetary influences on the conscious and subconscious providing a guideline towards all aspects of life, harmony of mind, body and spirit. This is the real use of astrology^. Dr. ^.V.Raman implies that "astrology in India is a part of the whole of Indian culture and plays an integral part in guiding life for all at all stages of life" ^. Predictive astrology is a part of astronomy that exists by the influence of ganita and astronomical doctrines. Winternitz observes that an astrologer is required to possess all possible noble quantities and a comprehensive knowledge of astronomy, ' Quoted from Sabdakalpadruma, kanta-ll, p.550 ^ L.R.Chawdhari, Secrets of astrology.
